In this song by Casting Crowns, the lyrics narrate the idea of divine intervention and guidance, highlighting that God's plans often surpass human aspirations. The song illustrates this through biblical characters like David and Mary, each of whom had modest dreams. God reveals to David that his destiny is far greater than being a shepherd—he is to defeat Goliath and become king. Similarly, Mary learns that she will not just have an ordinary family but will be the mother of Jesus. The chorus emphasizes surrendering personal plans to embrace God's greater vision, underscoring the belief that God's strength and guidance can fulfill extraordinary purposes. Through this message, the song encourages listeners to trust and follow divine plans, assuring that these plans are more significant and far-reaching than one could imagine on their own.
Dream for You
Lyrics
Hey, David, I hear you've been dreaming
About being a big time shepherd some day
You're gonna prove your brothers wrong
You're gonna sing your shepherd song
To the cattle on a thousand hills
But I've been thinking
I'm having trouble with a giant down the road
You're the one who's going to face him toe to toe
Wipe that grin right off his face
And whip this army into shape
I'm going to turn the nation back to Me
And David, you're right about one thing
Your little shepherd songs are going to make the whole world sing
And I'm gonna make you king
So come on, let Me dream, let Me dream for you
I am strong when you're weak and I'll carry you
So let go of your plan, be caught by My hand
I'll show you what I can do
When I dream for you
I have a dream for you
Hey Mary, I've heard you've been dreaming
Making plans for your big wedding day
You and Joseph are gonna be
The picture perfect family
Maybe a couple of kids down the road
But I've been thinking
Even before time began
I had a picture perfect plan
Of how to save this broken world
Through the life of just one man
I'm gonna send my only Son
And Mary, you're the one
You were right about one thing
You're gonna have that family
And you're gonna raise a King
So come on, let Me dream, let Me dream for you
I am strong when you're weak and I'll carry you
So let go of your plan, be caught by My hand
I'll show you what I can do
When I dream for you
When I dream for you
I'm stronger than you think, I am
I'll take you farther than you think you can
You sing and call me Great I Am
So take your stand
My child, if you only knew
All the plans that I have for you
Just trust me, I will follow through
You can follow Me
So come on, let Me dream, let Me dream for you
I am strong when you're weak and I'll carry you
So let go of your plan, be caught by My hand
I'll show you what I can do
So come on, let Me dream, let Me dream for you
I am strong when you're weak and I'll carry you
So let go of your plan, be caught by My hand
I'll show you what I can do
When I dream for you
When I dream for you
When I dream for you
I have a dream for you
